It runs in the family.
Showing off their striking similarities, Sailor Cook, 15, proved she follows in the footsteps of her supermodel mother Christie Brinkley, 59, on Saturday night.
From their beauty routine to their fashion picks, the duo looked like two peas in a pod as they arrived in matching white dresses to attend a Bella magazine event at Georgica Restaurant in East Hampton, Long Island.

Christie - who is known for being a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover girl - turned back the clock as she hugged her curves in a sleeveless, skintight frock that complimented her bronzed skin.
She teamed the knee-length dress with a pair of simple, white pointed-toe pumps as her blonde locks were styled in loose curls.
Sticking with the 'less is more' beauty theory, the bombshell merely brightened up her look with natural tones of make-up and some lengthening mascara.
A little skin never hurt anyone... The duo both opted to wear dresses with see-through lace details
Unlike Christie's sophisticated style, her model daughter opted to don a more youthful outfit consisting of a lacy, white mini dress and platform sandals.
But Sailor's brunette locks remained consistent with her mum, framing her face in relaxed curls.
And she took some make-up tips from her mother as well, barely wearing any but adding just a touch of pink gloss and mascara.
The duo had fun posing on the carpet together, holding hands and hugging as they dazzled in the limelight.

Sailor made her cover girl debut for the July/August issue of Bella NYC, is currently featured in Teen Vogue, and has also booked to model the new One Direction collection for Claire’s fall campaign.
It has emerged that her mother has already warned her that with success, comes negativity.
Speaking to People magazine, Christie said: 'I tell all my kids: When you achieve any level of success in your life, no matter what it is… if they reach a place where they are written about in the papers, it will come with the haters.
'It is just a part of what is happening today. You have to prepare them for that aspect of it. The way to do that is you have to have lots of interests in your life and lots of passions and involvement with causes and giving back.'
Motherly advice: Sailor recently said that her mum told her she doesn't need to be skinny, just happy with herself and confident and fit
Christie, 59, added: 'It’s really amazing because my daughter Sailor, and my daughter Alexa, are both what you call late bloomers, I guess.'
Sailor - whose father is the nutritionist Peter Cook - is also featured in August's Teen Vogue where she talks about her fledgling career.
'It was only recently that I wanted to get into modeling. I said, 'Mom, should I diet?' and she was like, 'No! You don't need to be skinny, you just need to be happy with yourself and confident and fit.'
Sailor continued: 'All of her photos really show that. She was like a goddess.'
